Does anybody know the neck thickness of Peterson's 6.5 Creedmoor brass? I've ordered 350 pieces of their small rifle primer brass, and I have a set of Redding Type-S dies coming from another member that will need a bushing. I may just wait for it all to get here and take measurements then, but I am anxious to get some rounds loaded and try out my rifle. So, if anyone knows the neck thickness or what bushing they use, it'll save me some wait time.
Also, I reload but am new to precision handloading. I've read mostly about setting the final neck tension with the bushing, but I also read about making the neck slightly undersized with a bushing and then letting the expander expand it on its way out of the case. That seems like the best way to me, provided the expander is about .002" under bullet diameter. Does anybody do it this way?
